Crockpot Potato Salad

I honestly was not quite expecting to find a crockpot potato salad recipe… I was just reading a magazine and came across it and decided I had to try it. Of course, I made quite a few necessary changes…. When a recipe calls for half an onion in a recipe like this.. No, that’s not going to cut it.

It took 5 hours to cook it, but it filled our house with the best smell. And the taste… I admit the potatoes were slightly under-cooked, but the flavors were amazing. The mustard, vinegar, celery, bacon…. all of it together with the potatoes just tasted amazing. I highly recommend it, although it doesn’t quite keep as well as I’d hoped.

Start by chopping up around 2 cups of celery, or 3-4 stalks and 1 small onion. Place in a crockpot.

Then cut up 3 pounds of potatoes and add to the crockpot as well.

Mix together.

Fry up around 4 pieces of bacon. Try not to burn it like I did, just fry until crispy. Once crispy, drain all grease but 2 tablespoons. Set that aside in a small bowl. Put the bacon on a paper-towelled plate and let cool. Put it in the fridge.
